Yang Man is an excellent assistant. She helps me solve many big and small things around me.
I believe she has the ability to help me find such a company, and I can only wait for news from her.
It was getting dark, but what I never expected was that when I was about to take my two children to find a place to eat outside the hotel, I actually ran into An Lan again!
I don’t know if it’s because Shanghai is too small, or if we are really destined.
And we met in the lobby on the first floor of the hotel. She was alone, and she seemed to be here to check in.
I didn't notice her at first, but Shu Zhi saw her first and said to me: "Uncle, look, isn't that the beautiful aunt who was chatting with you on the plane?"
I followed the direction of Shu Zhi's finger and saw that it was An Lan.
I really didn't expect it to be her, so I froze in place for a long time until An Lan turned around.
Our eyes met!
She was also stunned on the spot, as if she didn't expect to meet me here.
Fate brings us together again.
Sometimes you have to believe in fate!
She finally walked over to me, first looked at the two children beside me, and then asked me: "Why are you here?"
"I also want to ask why you are here?"
“I booked a room here!”
I smiled mechanically and said, "What a coincidence, I also booked a room here."
An Lan looked at me strangely, then looked at the two children and asked, "What's going on with them?"
I sighed softly and said, "It's a long story."
"Then keep your story short."
"Take them to their father."
"Looking for dad?" An Lan was stunned again.
I nodded, then was silent for a while, and then said to her: "We will go out to eat right away. If you have time, you can come with us. I will tell you slowly."
An Lan hesitated for a moment and said to me: "Then wait for me, I'll go back to the room first."
I nodded and waited for her in the lobby on the first floor.
The reason why I asked her to come with me was to see if she had any better way to help these two children find their father, because I have always felt that An Lan is omnipotent.
After waiting for a few minutes, An Lan changed into casual clothes and came to the first floor. She was actually wearing a skirt.
Even after giving birth to a child, her figure was not out of shape at all. She really had what she wanted and had no shortcomings.
Such a perfect woman is naturally the center of attention in any place, and it is obvious that many men are looking at her around her.
However, An Lan seemed to have become numb to these gazes and did not pay any attention to them.
After she came to me, I took her out of the hotel.
She said: "I know a very good restaurant, it's near here, I'll take you there."
I had only been to Shanghai a few times and was not familiar with it, so I naturally nodded and followed An Lan with my two children.
After walking not far, we came to an old Shanghai restaurant on the second floor of an old street.
This alley gives people a feeling of returning to old Shanghai in the 1960s and 1970s, with a unique flavor.
Including the restaurant, it is also very retro, with beauties in cheongsam on the walls, highly saturated neon lights, and the candles on the dining table also have a Nordic style.
In short, as soon as you arrive at the restaurant, you will feel like you have traveled through time.
In the restaurant, a record player was playing hoarse old Shanghai-style pop music, and the one playing at the moment was Teresa Teng's "South China Sea Girl."
The sound of the music perfectly fits the environment, instantly letting people let go of all the burdens and pressures in their hearts.
We chose a double seat by the window. An Lan and I sat face to face, Shu Zhi sat next to me, and Shu Ya sat next to An Lan.
For a moment, it seemed like the four of us were a real family.
Accompanied by the brisk music, I told An Lan everything about the two children.
She kept frowning until she listened, and then she looked at the two children with distress and asked, "Where are your grandparents and grandparents?"
Both children shook their heads one after another, and Shu Zhi said in a deep voice: "It's all gone."
My heart sank, so to speak, the only remaining relative of theirs was the father who had no news.
An Lan asked again: "After all these years, has your father never gone back?"
The two children still shook their heads, and An Lan complained in a rare way: "This person is really serious. Doesn't he have no sense of family in his heart? Doesn't his wife stay home alone with two children and ignore her?"
In fact, I feel that their father may have abandoned them a long time ago, because of what Master Yang said in the afternoon, he said that he heard Shu Dayong say that he had never been married.
This sentence makes me feel that the situation is not that simple. If that Shu Dayong has a sense of family, it is impossible for him to say that he is not married.
Maybe if their father is found, he will probably not recognize these two children.
But someone needs to be found. After all, he is the biological father of these two children, and he has to shoulder the responsibility of a father.
An Lan was really a little angry. She had always been a very calm woman. Even if such a big thing happened in the company, she would face it calmly.
But at this moment, she was angry about the life experiences of these two children.
I think this is something she only realizes when she becomes a mother, and she completely puts herself into it.
What's even more heartbreaking is that these two children are very sensible, but the more sensible they are, the more heartache they feel!
I said to An Lan: "The news I got now is that after their father resigned from the flour mill, he joined a company that sells soap. There is a Chinese character in the name of that company. I asked someone to check it. It is estimated that tomorrow
There will be news."
"I also have some acquaintances in Shanghai. I will ask someone to check them immediately. Is it probably a few years ago?"
I sighed softly and said, "The estimated time should be six or seven years ago."
An Lan nodded, took out his cell phone and walked aside to make a call.
I knew she would help. She had a wider network of contacts than me and could quickly find Shu Dayong.
We stopped talking about these things after that and just ate quietly and listened to songs quietly. This was really a kind of enjoyment.
While I was enjoying myself, I asked An Lan again: "How come we are so coincidental? Not to mention we are on the same flight, and now we even have the same hotel."
An Lan also smiled: "I have booked a hotel a long time ago, you don't suspect that I am following you, do you?"
"It's not that it's not true, it's just a coincidence."
"It's quite a coincidence, but the place where I came to Shanghai for business this time is not far from the hotel. I'm also curious about why you chose this hotel."
I smiled and said, "What a coincidence. I just told you that after I got out of the airport, I took my two children to the alley to look for her. But I couldn't find it, so I just found a hotel nearby."
"Maybe our room is also on the same floor."
"No? What's your room number?" I asked in surprise.
"608."
"I'll go," I said in shock, "I really suspect you are following me. My room is 610."
An Lan looked at me with her big eyes open, and she felt incredible.
What a coincidence. We came to Shanghai on the same flight from Chengdu. Although we were in different seats, we changed seats and sat with her again. Now we are not even in a hotel, but we are still on the same floor.
Anyway, I have never encountered such a coincidence. It seems that everything is destined.
